We consider a class of conformal models describing closed strings in axially symmetric stationary magnetic flux tube backgrounds. These models are closed string analogs of the Landau model of a particle in a magnetic field or the model of…
A set of classical solutions of a singular type is found in a 5D SUSY bulk-boundary system. The "parallel" configuration, where the whole components of fields or branes are parallel in the iso-space, naturally appears. It has three {\it…
We compute by means of the Bethe Ansatz the boundary S matrix for the open anisotropic spin-1/2 chain with diagonal boundary magnetic fields in the noncritical regime (Delta > 1). Our result, which is formulated in terms of q-gamma…
We provide a new general setting for scalar interacting fields on the covering of a d+1-dimensional AdS spacetime. The formalism is used at first to construct a one-paramater family of field theories, each living on a corresponding…
The $D$-brane spectra in the Type IIB string theory compactified on $AdS_{p+2}\times S^{8-p}$ are computed using the K-theory approach. The results signal the existence of the mirror-symmetry-analogue for $D$-branes, analogous to that rised…
This paper considers a class of nonlinear time harmonic Maxwell systems at fixed frequency, with nonlinear terms taking the form $\mathscr{X}(x,|\vec E(x)|^2)\vec E(x)$, $\mathscr{Y}(x,|\vec H(x)|^2)\vec H(x)$, such that $\mathscr{X}(x,s)$,…
We study integrable open boundary conditions for d(2,1;\alpha)^2 and psu(1,1|2)^2 spin-chains. Magnon excitations of these open spin-chains are mapped to massive excitations of type IIB open superstrings ending on D-branes in the AdS_3 x…
We derive boundary states which describe configurations of multiple parallel branes with arbitrary open string states interactions in bosonic string theory. This is obtained by a careful discussion of the factorization of open/closed string…
In this paper, we provide a comprehensive study of asymptotically flat spacetime in even dimensions $d\geq 4$. We analyze the most general boundary condition and asymptotic symmetry compatible with Penrose's definition of asymptotic null…
In the framework of boundary conformal field theory we consider a flat unstable D$p$-brane in the presence of a large constant electromagnetic field. Specifically, we study the case that the electromagnetic field satisfy the following three…
There are two important examples of physical systems which violate the strong energy condition : Universes (like, it would seem, our own) with a positive cosmological constant, and wormholes. We suggest that a positive cosmological constant…
We compute the anomalous dimension for a short single-trace operator in planar ABJM theory at intermediate coupling. This is done by solving numerically the set of Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz equations which are expected to describe the…
CFT construction of S-branes describing the rolling and bouncing tachyons is analyzed in the context of a $\theta$-noncommutative deformation of minisuperspace. Half s-brane and s-brane in the noncommutative minisuperspace are analyzed and…
We describe the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint elliptic system on a finite interval. Under certain conditions we find that the eigenvalues form a discrete set and converge asymptotically at infinity to one of several straight lines. The…
The aim of this paper is investigating the existence of solutions of some semilinear elliptic problems on open bounded domains when the nonlinearity is subcritical and asymptotically linear at infinity and there is a perturbation term which…
This paper considers and extends spectral and scattering theory to dissipative symmetric systems that may have zero speeds and in particular to strictly dissipative boundary conditions for Maxwell's equations. Consider symmetric systems…
We analyze the conformal limit of the matrix model describing flux backgrounds of two dimensional type 0A string theory. This limit is believed to be dual to an AdS(2) background of type 0A string theory. We show that the spectrum of this…
We propose a general class of five-dimensional soft-wall models with AdS metric near the ultraviolet brane and four-dimensional Poincar\'e invariance, where the infrared scale is determined dynamically. A large UV/IR hierarchy can be…
We study the structure of the zero set of a nontrivial finite point charge electrical field $F = (X,Y)$ in the plane $\mathbb R^2$. We establish equations satisfied by the possible directions for the zero sets \{X = 0\} and $\{Y = 0\}$…
